Shittu Abdulfatah, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the Ogbomoso North State Constituency seat, has outlined a four-point development agenda ahead of the 2027 election. Education forms a central part of the plans he announced.
Abdulfatah said he would establish the Omo Abẹ́de Education Fund, a scholarship scheme intended to support indigent students from Ogbomoso North in universities, polytechnics, and colleges of education. He also stated that the initiative would include free registration and tutorial support for SS3 students preparing for JAMB and WAEC examinations.
On support for the girl-child, the candidate listed free sanitary pads, mentorship programmes, and additional educational assistance aimed at helping girls remain in school.
